North Star Place
This was a nice and convenient place to stay for an extended period of time. It was easy to access had plenty of open space, a bathroom and kitchen with anything you needed to cook and store food. The only con was the creeks and sounds of footsteps coming from the top floor, that wasn’t a deal breaker ...
